1.5.6.5

GIT v1.5.6.5 Release Notes ==========================

Fixes since v1.5.6.4 --------------------

• "git cvsimport" used to spit out "UNKNOWN LINE…" diagnostics to stdout.

• "git commit -F filename" and "git tag -F filename" run from subdirectories did not read the right file.

• "git init --template=" with blank "template" parameter linked files under root directories to .git, which was a total nonsense. Instead, it means "I do not want to use anything from the template directory".

• "git diff-tree" and other diff plumbing ignored diff.renamelimit configuration variable when the user explicitly asked for rename detection.

• "git name-rev --name-only" did not work when "--stdin" option was in effect.

• "git show-branch" mishandled its 8th branch.

• Addition of "git update-index --ignore-submodules" that happened during 1.5.6 cycle broke "git update-index --ignore-missing".

• "git send-email" did not parse charset from an existing Content-type: header properly.

Contains other various documentation fixes.
